No films were shown at Woolton Picture House in 2022 and customers are still waiting to return to Liverpool's oldest cinema.
The cinema, which first opened in 1927, has not yet reopened after closing for the Covid-19 pandemic. After being saved from permanent closure by a crowd-funding campaign and government funding, plans to reopen have since been announced and altered.
Long periods of silence and changed plans have led to the reopening being termed a "saga" by local councillor Kris Brown. After the community in Woolton appealed for transparency from the owners, the cinema detailed its plans in an October Facebook post, with a target of Spring 2023 for reopening.
